16.8 Step 7: Workflow Management

Approval workflows are created to support requirements where multiple levels of approval are required in a specific sequence for a transaction/maintenance. Each workflow can be configured to have up to five levels of approval with a specific user or a user group configured at each level. The number of levels can be configured.

Workflows can be configured for approval as well as release.

Workflows can be created independently and can be attached to a specific transaction/maintenance as part of the Approval Rule configuration.

The approver is responsible for giving formal authorization to proceed with a transaction. The approver decides to approve or reject the transaction based on its validity and compliance with regulations.

The checker is responsible for verifying the accuracy and completeness of the transaction details before they are approved or released. The checker reviews supporting documents and ensures all information is correct and complete.

The releaser is responsible for the final step of authorizing and executing the transaction, often after it has been checked and approved. The releaser initiates the actual release of funds or completion of the transaction.

Workflow Type: The workflow can be created for Approval or Release types of flows.

Within the ‘Approval’ workflow type, user can configure either an approver or checker at each level. The Approval workflow can be setup with a specific user or a user group configured at each level. The number of levels is configurable for ‘Approval’ workflow type. There is no restriction on the count of checkers/approvers within an ‘Approval’ workflow type.

Within the ‘Release’ workflow type, user can configure a releaser workflow. The Release workflow can be setup with a specific user or a user group configured at a single level. Only 1 level can be configured for ‘Release’ workflow type.
